ICT Learning Media Production

ICT Media Production works with all schools and faculties to produce quality on-line audio and video content for research, learning and teaching. From short how-to clips, mini-lectures and interviews to more complex productions, our vast range of genres provide the flexibility to cater for a variety of style ideas to enhance learning outcomes and boost student engagement. Videos can be posted to an LMS such as Blackboard, or embedded in a website such as the new Aboriginal Kinship Project.

Short videos of around 3-5 minutes long are provided at no cost. For longer, funded, more complex projects costs will apply in line with your budget. We can consult with you over project scoping, script development, production management and budgeting. If you would like an educational video please submit a Production Proposal, or call the ICT Help Desk on 9351 6000 (x16000).

Mini-lectures

Mini-lectures are typically under ten minutes long and include a piece to camera as well as accompanying images, film clips, graphics and text. They're succinct, with tight more colloquial scripting best suited for on-line presentations and MOOCs. A green screen equipped production studio enables flexible chroma key background effects that are created in post production.

Simple how-to clips

These videos exemplify the features of the classic how-to clip. They are short, punchy, and provide clear and concise step-by-step instruction. With minimal scripting and a quick turnaround, these videos are generally 3-5 minutes long and are provided at no cost.

More complex how-to videos

Here are examples of more complex demonstration style videos. They can capture complicated demonstrations or difficult to replicate experiments. On-line access enables a broad reach and students can go over and over more tricky bits for improved comprehension.

Higher quality, multi-faceted videos

These videos demonstrate higher quality production techniques with a variety of material including interviews, scripted narration, presenters, animation, text and overlay such as shots of classroom interaction to explain and contextualise complicated concepts for greater student engagement and enhanced learning outcomes.

Interviews, scripted narratives and role plays

Interviews are great for eliciting interesting information from leaders in their field for engaging learning. Scripted narratives can be created for succinct and structured content, and the role play is an effective way to explain and demonstrate the importance of empathetic communication for positive outcomes.

Video for research and other projects

We produce educational videos that enhance research projects and help to explain complex topics. Video can be used as an effective observational tool, as shown in the one we made for the School of Psychology. The Dentistry 'Guide to Examination' has been included to further illustrate the versatility of video for research, learning and teaching.
